Results of Block Voting with Only Two PLCs Online

In the two tables below, PLC C is shown as offline, but it could be either of the other two instead.

Using 0 as the Duplex Default state means that when only two PLCs are online, the voted output state will be 0 if either PLC sets it to 0. It will not be 1 unless both online PLCs set it to 1.

Similarly, using 1 as the Duplex Default state means that when only two

PLCs are online, the voted output state will be 1 if either PLC sets it to 1.

It will not be 0 unless both of the PLCs set it to 0..
